Welcome

About this site

Thank you for visiting our site.  We are here to support families and others dealing with ADHD in Louisiana.  Please post a note and plan to join us at an upcoming meeting.

InfoLine Update

For anyone who might have left a telephone message on our InfoLine in the last few months, please note that technical difficulties have resulted in the loss of a number of the messages.  At this time we do not have sufficient volunteers to return individual telephone calls, so we hope that you will bring any questions to our meetings personally.

If you need to speak with a health information specialist about AD/HD and cannot wait until our next meeting, please call the National Resource Center on AD/HD at 1-800-233-4050.

How Can We Help You?

A more extensive survey to determine what you expect from our group has been developed and the link has been distributed to all email addresses in our file.  If you have not yet responded to this survey, please click HERE and take a minute or two to answer the questions.  It will be a great help to us!
